    - The document discusses the claim, evidence, and reasoning (CER) framework for constructing scientific explanations. - It defines each part of CER: a claim is a conclusion statement, evidence includes data that supports the claim, and reasoning uses logic to connect the evidence to the claim. - An example is provided asking students to identify the CER in a video about a product called Sham Wow, including what claim is made, the evidence used, and the reasoning provided to support the claim.

    Today’s Objective:

    •Identify claim,
    evidence, & reasoning. 
    •Use claim, evidence and
    reasoning as the framework
    of a scientific explanation. 
    Claim Evidence Reasoning
    Claim Evidence Reasoning is a
    framework for constructing
    scientific explanations.

    Whenever you answer a


    question in a science class, you
    should use CER

    • What is the girls claim?


    Fold paper in half down the middle and
    make a T-chart with the following headings.

    Formula Definitions
    Copy this down on the left side of your paper
    under formula.
    On the right side of the paper write down
    the following:

    1. Claim:

    2. Evidence:

    3. Reasoning:
    Claim Evidence Reasoning
    Claim Evidence Reasoning is a
    framework for constructing scientific
    explanations.

    Write down these definitions.


    •Claim: conclusion statement that
    answers a question
    •Evidence: DATA that support the claim (tables,
    charts, graphs, observations)
    •Reasoning: explanation of the science behind
    why the facts support the claim

    PROBLEM: Is the sham wow


    worth buying?

    CLAIM
    What does Vince want
    you to believe?

    EVIDENCE
    Why is Vince so convincing?
    As you are watching, think about all the
    evidence Vincent uses to convince you
    to buy Sham Wow.
    Claim –
    •A conclusion statement
    that answers question

    What did Vincent Claim?


    Evidence –
    •Observations
    •Experimental evidence
    •Facts that led you to make the claim

    DATA
    whatever you measured or observed!!!

    What evidence did Vincent use?


    What evidence does Vince use to
    convince you to buy Sham Wow?

    -holds 20x its weight in liquid demonstrations


    - dried off the counter
    -washable
    -better for the environment
    -save $20 a month on paper towels
    -change the size
    -different/multiple uses
    -10 year warranty
    -Made In Germany -Germans make good things
    REASONING

    How did Vincent use that evidence


    to prove his claim?

    The reasoning ties the evidence to


    the claim.
    Reasoning
    •Uses logic to tie evidence to the claim.
    •Detailed explanation for why the evidence
    led you to make the claim.
    •Deep explanation of the science concepts–
    Why do the facts support the statement.
    –Why did my experiment turn out the way it
    did.
    –The scientific background knowledge that
    justifies why a multiple choice answer is the
    best answer.
    What is the Reasoning?:

    The Sham Wow works so well because it


    contains micro fibers. Micro fiber towels are
    made from two synthetic (man made) materials,
    usually nylon and polyester. They are smaller
    than 1/100th the diameter of a human hair. This
    gives the towel a lot of surface area to make
    contact with the spill and absorb the liquid. ​

    report about research into
    smiling.

    Look for the claim, the


    evidence, the reasoning

    •What is the claim the reporter is
    making?
    •What evidence does she cite in
    the report that supports that
    claim?
    •What is the scientific explanation
    (reasoning)?
    –Physiological reason smiling
    makes you happy
    –Physiological reason people who
    smile feel better
    WHY DO WE USE CLAIM, EVIDENCE,
    REASONING?

    •Use it to discuss claims made in


    documentaries, videos, commercials. 
    •Use it after an experiment to explain why
    a hypothesis was proven correct or not. 
    •Use it to engage in structured, respectful,
    argumentation.
